How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.By putting thoughts into words, you are telling
27、yourself the logic（逻辑）behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power.”Try this experiment. Explain how youll increase your brain power, even if you ha
28、ve no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “Ill learn chess,” or “Ill read an article on the mind every week.” Explain how that will help. Youll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, youll have a
29、better understanding of your brain from now.Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time youre working on a big project, yo
30、ull probably have more success.Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. Thats an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem, why you want to so
31、lve it, and why it is worth solving, and youre half-way there.Writers dont always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to an understanding. Give it a try.56.
32、What would be the best title for the text?A.A Way on How to Write. B.Increase Your Brain Power through Writing.C. Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing. D. How to Start Your Writing.57.

Mr. Johnson took the only escape routethrough the boot（
45、行李箱）.Mr. Johnsons car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank“Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said“I couldnt force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows
46、 because I knew water would come flooding in.” Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and bootThen he began his struggle to escapeLater he said, “It was really a half penny that saved
47、 my lifeIt was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the bootI hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.” It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot
48、Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lockFifteen minutes passed by “It was the only chance I hadFinally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured inI forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.” His hands and arms c

50、mud at the bottom of the ditch66. What is the best title for this newspaper article? A. The Story of Mr. Johnson, A Sweet Salesman B. Car Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape Route C.

It may be inferred from the passage that .A. the ditch was along a quiet country road B. the accident happened on a clear warm dayC. the police helped Mr. Johnson get out of the ditchD. Mr. Johnson had a tender wife and was well attendedDThere are two types of people in the world. Alth
54、ough they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention o
55、n the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By thei
56、r remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing(批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(
57、模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an a
58、ct of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.
59、If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. Th
60、ese should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one become
61、s mixed up in their quarrels. 71. People who are unhappy .A. always consider things differently from othersB. usually are affected by the results of certain things C. usually misunderstand what others think or sayD. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things72. The underlined phrase “sour
62、 the pleasure of society” in Paragraph 2 most nearly means “ ”.A. have a good taste with social lifeB. make others unhappyC. tend to scold others openlyD. enjoy the pleasure of life73. We can conclude from the passage that .A. we should pity all such unhappy people B. such unhappy people are dangero
63、us to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD. unhappy people can not understand happy persons74. If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should .A. prevent any communication with them B. show no respect and politeness to themC. pers
64、uade them to recognize the bad effects D. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes75. In this passage, the writer mainly . A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests the unhappy people should get rid of the habits of unhappinessD. tells people how to be happy

Researchers give different names to different learning styles, but they all agree that students who understand their own styles can improve their study skills. The learn
66、ing styles described below (visual, auditory, and tactile) are just three of the many ways to identify how people learn.2Visual learners have to “see it to believe it”. They often have good imaginations (they can picture things in their minds), and they may also have a good sense of color and artist
67、ic ability. These learners may have trouble listening to lectures or instructions if there are no pictures or text to support what they hear. They may also find it hard to focus in a room where people are moving around.3Auditory learners remember information if _. They prefer to learn by listening a
68、nd will often ask questions about things they read. Reading tasks can he difficult for these learners, and they can quickly lose their focus if there is too much noise in a room.4Tactile learners can learn and remember what they touch. Thats why computers are a big help to these learners; the sense
69、of touch (using the keyboard) helps them remember information. Tactile learners prefer to do “hands-on” activities such as role plays, science experiments, or project that involve buildings. They learn better when they do some sort of physical activity. Tactile learners need to take frequent breaks
70、when they study because they dont like sitting for long periods of time. 5One thing is true for all learners, whether visual, auditory, or tactile: in the world of education, one of the most important subjects is learning how to learn. 76.

Here are their words:A majority of the students think that the teachers must be worth respecting permanently. Besides, it i
77、s mean that one person make any irresponsible comments behind on others, especially our loved teachers. As a senior student, we should learn how to make a deep communication with our teachers when we have any dissatisfaction to our teachers.There is no denying that some students have different opini
78、ons and their behaviors. They think that only in this way can they express their real thought and feelings freely and safely. On the other hand, if a student makes much complaint to teachers face to face, it will bring much embarrass to our teachers. In my opinion, we shouldnt stab our teacher in th
